New York, July 7, 2011--Belarusian authorities must immediately cease their ongoing crackdown against the independent press and release
all journalists in state custody, the Committee to Protect Journalists said
today. Police in Minsk and other cities across the country detained at least 28
journalists on Wednesday who were covering protest rallies that opposition
activists have been holding weekly since late May, according to the Minsk-based
Belarusian Association of Journalists (BAJ) and reports in the local and international press.
